Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Greek Sculpture, Vol. 2 of 2 IT may be that an acquaintance with the personality of an artist, does not promote in the end a true judgment of his work. But we cannot deny that it has often furnished the pages of the historian with charm and vivacity. The History of Greek Sculpture presents no such opportunity. It has no Lives to beguile the student along an arduous path. Only here and there an incident, handed down on mostly a dubious authority, breaks the narrative of work done and the examination of what remains of it to our day. The sculptors of ancient Greece seem to have lost themselves in their art, and this might have been a less misfortune for us, if it also had not since their time disappeared in a great measure.

This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Sculpture, From the Earliest Ages to the Present Time, Vol. 2 of 2 All, therefore, that Christianity had with efi'ort repressed for nearly five hundred years, namely, the old Teutonic natural feeling and delight in the mighty legends of antiquity, now began uncontrollably to rise again, and acquired a new life through poetry. But one thing was irrecoverably lost, and that was the original connection of religious doctrine with national legend and with an innate appreciation of nature. The Christian religion had rejected that central point from which the sages had drawn their fuller and deeper life, and had implanted in the breast of the N orthern races a new heart, as it were, in the place of the old one. When, therefore, the legends of antiquity again made their way into poetry, they had lost their original feeling, and were often obliged with effort and constraint to adapt themselves to the Christian views that had, meanwhile, become predominant. Hence it was that the German nation could never produce a national epos like the Iliad and hence, moreover, it was that poets did not write for the whole people, but only for a chosen circle, and for courtly-trained knights. And hence the whole poetry of the period bears an artificial stamp, which only too speedily degenerated into an afi'ected and conventional character.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Sculpture, From the Earliest Ages to the Present Time, Vol. 1 of 2 For a work of this nature, I had scarcely ventured to hope such success as would afford me the opportunity of seeing the work in a new and improved edition. All the more pleased am I, after seven years, to have received this opportunity. All capable critics have acknowledged and encouraged my attempt, and a considerable part of the cultivated public have received my work with interest. This has decided me, in the new edition, to subject my work to a thorough revision, to fill up former 'gaps, to remove inequalities of treatment, and throughout to strive after greater finish, both as regards subject and form. Above all, I'have enlarged and revised the antique sections, in which the results of recent researches, as well as my own continued studies, have been turned to account. A special section on the plastic lesser arts of the ancients has been added. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Documentary History of Art Volume 2 written by Elizabeth Gilmore Holt and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1982-10-21 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory and practice of art underwent a number of fascinating changes between the sixteenth and the eighteenth centuries, changes which are clearly revealed in this unique collection of letters, journals, essays, and other writings by the artists and their contemporaries. In the poems of Michelangelo, the Dialogues of Carducho, or the Discourses of Sir Joshua Reynolds, one discovers the stylistic and philosophical concerns of the artist, while the record of Veronese's trial before the Holy Tribunal, the diary of Bernini's journey in France, the letters of Rubens and Poussin or biographical sketches of Rembrandt and Watteau reveal not only the personalities but also the conditions of the times. These basic and illuminating documents, now again available in paperback, provide an unparalleled opportunity for insight into the art and ideas of the periods the author discusses.
